Laboratories

The Radio Wave Research Laboratory consists of three centers and five laboratories.
Each research center aims to realize Society 5.0 by conducting the activities as follows.

RES

Remote Sensing
Laboratory

In the Remote Sensing Laboratory, we develop remote sensing technologies using electromagnetic waves to contribute to the prevention and mitigation of natural disasters.

DIO

Digital Optics
Laboratory

The Digital Optics Laboratory carries out research and development aimed at the production of diffractive optical elements using digital hologram printing and the establishment of precision optical measurement techniques for the real world using holograms, the results of which are applied to industry.

Electromagnetic Standards Research Center

We are engaged in establishing technical criteria and standards related to electromagnetic waves necessary for maintaining the infrastructure of modern society and for further development of science and technology in the two included laboratories. The Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory conducts research and provides public services relevant to the evaluation of electromagnetic interferences and safety between various devices and systems. The Space-Time Standards Laboratory conducts research and provides public services relevant to the generation, dissemination, and utilization of accurate time and frequency.

Director General: TSUGAWA Takuya

SPE

Space Environment
Laboratory

The Space Environment Laboratory contributes to the stable use of radio waves in social infrastructure and space utilization systems by developing advanced technologies for monitoring, forecasting, and providing warning regarding the space environment.

EMC

Electromagnetic
Compatibility Laboratory

In the Electromagnetic Compatibility Laboratory, we conduct research on EMC as well as calibration services to maintain the EM environment.

STS

Space-Time Standards
Laboratory

In the Space-Time Standards Laboratory, we develop technologies relevant to accurate standards of time, frequency, and positioning. The laboratory includes Japan Standard Time Service Group, where standard frequency as well as standard time are provided to the society with high reliability.
